Description
xAristophanes was a contemporary of Socrates and the last and greatest of the old Attic comedians, but unfortunately, only 11 of his plays survive. Of these, Lysistrata and Other Plays contains three: Lysistrata, The Acharnians, and The Clouds.
Aristophanes was sceptical about the democratic system of government and was critical of the eagerness with which the people committed themselves to war. The plays in this volume reflect these concerns: Lysistrata is a bawdy anti-war fantasy; The Acharnians is a plea for peace set against the background of the long war with Sparta; and The Clouds.
